I took the spindle off of the dana 30 on the passenger side and the hub bearing is completely gone, can i get this bearing assembly out on my own or is it supposed to be pressed in and pressed out? any suggestions on what brand and who sells the hub bearing assembly? I just want to make sure i buy the right thing before i order it

Yes, you can change it out yourself. It helps to have a gear puller though. They can get a little stuck with some rust.

Just bang on it with a bfh. Timken bearings are pretty good. You can get em at orielly or autozone.

My "Houston" Jeep with 100k+ miles, they came right off, no problem. Those poor bastards in the "salt" belt have a much different story. :rolleye0012:
